AurBISi When ehe reCuriu . j in an afternoon in London, Ueoroie Bancroft find her uncle's housekeeper, lire. Lovelock, eo ill the mutt be tent to a hospital. Ber uncle comes home somewhat the woree tor whisky, and in an argu ment over the missing Lovelock, flinae Oeorgle againet the etair rail. tfout Nichobne Boyd, for merly a film star, ie valking to ward Qeorgle'e home, ruminating over the accident thai hoe marred hie face and ruined hie eareer. Be deoidee to eall on Qoorgle, iohoee romantlo attachment for him hoe led her to introduce hereelf to htm. r'M door u halt-open m4 NIcholaa could see Into the ball. That looked dingy too, though thanka to Mrs. Lovelock It i scrupulously clean. NIcholaa rang the bell; It went slanging unmusically through the house, dying away In a faintly pro testing tinkle, and then for some leconds there was unbroken silence. He rang again, and this time there was a step in the hall, a light step which could only belong to Oeorgle, snd a moment later her band had pulled the door open wide, and she was looking at him. It was Nicholas Boyd who spoke Brst "What In the name of Heaven have you been doing to yourself?" "How did you hurt your eye?" Boyd asked. Tbe hot blood rushed In a orlm son wave from hor chin to the roots of her hair, and she put up one band to cover the ugly brulBe which was disfiguring the left side of her face. "Nothing ... I knocked myself," she said with a rush. He looked at her silently tor a moment, knowing well enough that ha was not speaking the truth, and then be said "Well, mar I come In?" He read the denial In ber eyes, but he said: ' , "There's nobody here only me." "It is you I came to see." . "Oh," she drew a quick breath. ."Well, come In please." In hor mind she was wondering Into which room she ought to ask him; not to the drawing-room cer tainly, tor the blinds were still un drawn and she knew It would smell stuffy; not to her uncle's study for as yet she had not clerred up after last night and there would be used tumblers and general untidiness; not to the dining-room for that too would be In a muddle. She said helplessly: "Tbe kltoben's tbe best place If you don't mind." HE followed ber across the bait "la your ui.ole out?" "Yes; he's gone to London to snake a will." There was a note of Ironical amusement In her voice; he knew well enough what the con tents of that will would be. Every thing would go tor the formation of a Village Olub again, and nothing for her. There was a Are In the kitchen and It was all fairly tidy. Oeorgle drew forward Mrs. Love lock's chair with the red cushion. "I suppose I ougbt not to ask you In bere," she said with a feeling of helplessness. "But Mrs. Lovelock Is 111 and I've got It all to do and I'm not very ,ood at It" Sbe did not ex plain what "It" meant. NIcholaa said "Wont you sit down?" "I'll sit on tbe table It you don't mind." Nicholas loaned against Mrs. Lovelock's high-back chair. RAILROAD LABOR AGREEMENT HINT WASIIINOTON, June 3. P A prolonged conference late today of railroad and labor representatives with Joseph B. Eastman, the railroad co ordinator, gave rite to reports that an sgVeement had been reached In the railroad labor dispute. AFTER EVERY M . you manage to hart your eye like thatf" be asked again, and again the red flags of distress (lew to her cheeks. "I told you. I knocked myself. Wasn't It silly T" she was speaking In quick, nervous tones. "It looks worse than It Is. It looks an awful sight I know." "Does It hurt very macht" "It aches . . . rather." "Havs you done anything for It?" Suddenly Nicholas held out bis hand. "Come harel" "No," "Why notr "Because,'' then she covered ber face with both bands and began to sob. Nicholas crossed the floor that di vided them, and very gently took her wrists in his grasp, drawing ber hands down from ber face. "Your uncle has been knocking you about, Robin." "No no. I fell. He didn't know what he was doing; he'd had too much to drink. Aj rule he's kind, but last night," she stopped, the tears running down ber face, ber lips quivering. T4TICH0LA8 said gently, "Why do ' you stay with him, Robin?" She managed a broken laugh. "1 told you before beoause I've got nowhere else to go, and besides, II is my home, I suppose." She gulped down a sob. "I'm stllj to cry. I know yon bate to see peo ple cry, but . . . well, everything seems to have gone wrong since I came home. And now Mrs. Love lock's 111. They've taken her to the hospital." "Mrs. Lovelock?" "The housekeeper. She had a bad pain and Dr. Sudd said she must go to the hospital, and he came lust now and said they were going to operate on ber; she's got appendici tis, and unole Is furious. As If she can help having appendicitis." "Tell mt, Robin. This Mrs. tove lock. Is she kind to you?" "Kind?" Oeorgle considered the point. "Well, you wouldn't call It that exactly," she said at last, "but she's someono to talk to, I miss ber dreadfully though she only went away last nigh'," she added with a taint smile, which faded Into quick apprehension as the front door bell clanged again. Georgia sllppod down from the table. "I'll go and see who It Is. ril shut the door because 1 don't suppose you want anyone to see you here. J do wish you'd sit down." Nicholas sat down In Mrs. Love lock's chair. There was a sort ot anger In bis heart that this oblld, tor so Georgia seemed to him, should be forced to lire In such surround ings. He moved restlessly, shifting bis lame leg a little. It one were not so helpless, so tired ... the thought broke. The door behind him opened slow ly and she came back. Nicholas aalt rose, but she apoke, checking him. , "No, don't got up. It's alright Dudd ... It was Dr. Dudd. He's just come from the hospital." Her bewildered eyei were on his face, but she seemed to be looking beyond him at something she dreaded. "He said Mrs. Lovelock won't evor come back . . . she's dead."
